Anyone who’s followed me on Twitter knows I love a good Twitter party! I’m so excited to be joining TheMotherhood and Travel expert Julia Dimon (@JuliaDimon), who blogs about her adventures at Travel Junkie Julia, will join us for the party. Bring your questions for this travel guru!

I’m sure I’ll have a ton of questions since we recently moved to the VA area and we plan on exploring as much as possible!

Research says 70% of people don't know where they're going when beginning the trip-planning process. Are you one of them?

This month, we're throwing a Twitter party to celebrate with DoubleTree by Hilton as they launch DTour, the first-of-its-kind YouTube channel for the hotel industry, created in collaboration with Google.

DTour offers travelers a whole new way to plan and share trips. It's so easy - simply visit the site to upload a photo snapped on Instagram or a video from Facebook. Users can also explore other travelers’ favorite photos, videos, tips and stories to get inspired to plan the trips they’ve always wanted to take!

To celebrate the launch of DTour, DoubleTree by Hilton is also hosting the DTour of a Lifetime competition—a search for six people ready for the adventures of a lifetime. These six chosen winners will serve as brand ambassadors, traveling around the world, experiencing DoubleTree by Hilton hospitality, and creating their own travel tips and stories for DTour. Join the Twitter party to find out more on how to enter!

When: Tuesday, May 28, at 1pm ET (the party will last one hour)

Where: We’ll be on Twitter – follow the #DTourParty hashtag to track the conversation. You can see the details and RSVP via this Twtvite: http://twtvite.com/dtourparty

Hashtag: #DTourParty

Prizes: We will award five prizes during the party. Winners will be chosen randomly based on correct responses to trivia questions.
